Hey guys! I
am back from South Korea with a ton of goodies to share! I will be blogging my entire
trip in Korea from where I stayed to all the tourist spots that I went to. I am
thinking of splitting my post into maybe 3 parts. Links to other parts will be added at the end of this post. Fashion & cosmetic haul
will be on another separate post so let’s get right into it!
March 4
Heading into boarding area at Changi Airport. We
took AirAsia from SG to KL and then transfer from KL to Incheon since AirAsia
does not provide direct flights to Korea. I was pretty apprehensive about
taking AirAsia after I read all the bad reviews online but the flight was
fabulous and the stewardess were really pretty and helpful. The only complaint
that I have was that the seats weren’t the most comfortable for a long flight.
The flight duration to Seoul Incheon Airport took around 7 hours so I had an onboard meal that costs around SGD10. If I remembered correctly the dish was called Green Curry and the meal was delicious (prolly doesn't look that appetizing here).
Reached
Incheon Aiport and the weather was so freezing COLD! Together with a tour group, we traveled to the Northern South Korea and there were heaps of snow. To give you
guys a clearer impression of the weather, the season was end of winter
beginning of spring ranging from 0 to 10 Degrees Celsius.
Went to Naksansa Temple but I did not manage to reach the temple because it was so chilly
and the ground was slippery (you have to walk quite a distance). The view was fantastic but it was too cold to even
take a picture, I couldn't even feel my fingers! I bought a cob of steamed corn but it tasted nasty.
First meal in Korea!
We resided at Daemyung Resort. It snowed the
entire night and this was the view I woke up to.
Isn't it GORGEOUS?!

Went to
some local fish market but it wasn’t that interesting.
Ate Seafood for dinner but I definitely is not a seafood person so I didn't really ate anything on the pan.

The next day we went to a sheep farm, the sheep were so adorable! Our tour guide said that the owner starve them a little because when tourists feed them they will appear enthusiastic to their arrival. They looked really hungry and were almost hopping out to grab a small mouthful of animal feed. Coming from an animal lover, I wasn't too pleased to hear that but still cute anyways.
Hello there cutie!

Next, we went to
Everland which is the biggest amusement park in South Korea. There is also a Safari located in Everland where the infamous LIGER resides (LIGER is a baby of a Lion & Tiger so they literally named him Liger LOL).
Because the weather was so cold, the theme park was literally empty so for most of the rides, we do not have to queue. I heard that during certain seasons the waiting time for a ride can go up to 2 hours.

Ate Bibimbap (mixed rice) for dinner and stayed at
Pine Resort which has a huge man made ski park.
Meh! View wasn't so great...
Our next
destination was Seoul Namsan Park. The view was spectacular and luckily it
wasn’t raining or snowing. For all
lovers out there, this is a must go spot in Seoul.
